believe that if the amount of sodium citrate is too low or too high‚ the sodium alginate solution would not form into a ball. The recommended amount of sodium citrate to be added to the sodium alginate solution was ⅛ teaspoon‚ or 0.5 grams. We supposed that if we exceeded this measurement‚ the sodium citrate would unbalance the whole solution‚ making the balls deform. If we added too little of the sodium citrate‚ we thought that there would be too little for the sodium citrate to fully do its job of

Determining the percent Concentration of a given Solution using Titration Morphy Kuffour Mrs. Langlis‚ AP Chemistry C-D 9/24/2017 Purpose: Determining the precise concentration of vinegar through titration using a standard solution of Potassium Hydroxide (KOH) (aq) Background: Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid (CH3COOH) in water. The concentration of acetic acid in Vinegar is written as a Molarity (mol/L). In this experiment‚ titration is used to determine the concentration of acetic acid in vinegar

The environmental factors that effected the rate of enzyme reactions were the enzyme concentration‚ pH‚ and temperature. These environmental factors help enzymes break down the poisonous chemicals into harmless substance. When we tested the liver with 2ml of hydrogen peroxide for a normal reaction it showed that it was exothermic. We added more hydrogen peroxide and the reaction rate of the liver was 3. We learned that the catalase is reusable because the liver reacted both times when we put in

Sodium hypochlorite‚ also known as chlorine bleach‚ soda bleach‚ or household bleach is a chemical with the formula NaClO. A common way sodium hypochlorite gets into the San Francisco bay is through daily household cleaning products such as laundry bleach. In a survey conducted by The Clorox Company‚ it was found that four out of five households use sodium hypochlorite bleach for their laundry. Since laundry detergent companies are not required to list every ingredient‚ customers are often not aware

To begin the experiment‚ the reaction apparatus was assembled (as shown in Figure 1 below from the lab manual) consisting of a 3.0 mL conical vial charged with p-cresol (80uL from Eppendorf pipette)‚ 25% aqueous NaOH (130uL)‚ and a spin vane. The solution was mixed thoroughly and tetrabutylammonium bromide (9mg) was added along with n-propyl iodide (75uL) and it was equipped with a flask with a water reflux condenser. The solution was heated (95-100°C) while vigorously stirring it. After 60 minutes

Reaction on Reaction Paper The first thing that came to my mind when I have heard about Reaction paper is “What exactly is it?” and before I get an understanding of that‚ I resisted that change. But later‚ when I have studied about it and understood its purpose‚ I have started thinking “Why people avoid change at the first look without an analysis?” The general human tendency is to live in a comfortable zone in which he has lived for quite some time. He draws a circle‚ thinks that circle is his

Properties of Chemical Reactions Ms. Whitty‚ Science 10 Fiona Adams‚ November 1st‚ 2012 Introduction Chemical reactions are a part of our daily lives‚ from rusting metal to making bread to leaves changing colour in the fall. A chemical reaction is the process that occurs when two or more substances combine to produce a chemical change. When a chemical reaction takes place‚ the change is indicated by one or more qualitative properties. The colour or odor could change‚ gas could be produced

From the experiment‚ it was determined that Sodium chloride had a crystalline structure‚ even after being broken into smaller pieces with a hammer. Even though there was two different types of Sodium chloride‚ coarse and fine‚ they still had a symmetrical‚ three-dimensional shape. All ionic compounds have this structure. It was also found that Sodium chloride had a high melting point and sugar had a low melting point. This is because Sodium chloride is ionic and the bonds holding it together take

supernatant liquid and denser slurry having a higher concentration of solids. This is usually accomplished by allowing the particles to settle through the force of gravity‚ mechanically using centrifugal force‚ or electrostatically using an electric current. Continuous sedimentation tanks are usually used in wastewater treatment facilities to separate suspended particles from wastewater. This experiment aims to determine the effect of initial concentration and initial height of the slurry on its settling

Chemical reactions are a part of everyday lives. Whether it is the burning of propane at a kitchen stove‚ or washing detergent reacting with dirt stains‚ chemical reactions are useful tools that have widespread applications. With so many reactions assisting our everyday activities‚ it is important that ways to optimise reaction rates are investigated. “Reaction rate‚ the speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds… may be defined in terms of the amounts of the reactants consumed or products formed
